When we think of Buddhists, we can imagine them being pretty zen and peaceful people, meditating on a cliff somewhere. In reality, while we're not inherently angry people, we do experience anger in day-to-day situations. In this episode, Khema (@khema.1) and Nalanda (@nalanda.jakjan) share epic stories of our internal and external struggles with people, from Nalanda battling it out with a guy at Chadstone car park, to Khema standing her ground with an airport Karen, we'll share tips of how we deal with our anger, while growing to become more assertive in our adult lives.     References:  Akkosa Sutta.  (https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/sn/sn07/sn07.002.than.html)Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/uawake_podcast      DM us if you have questions, comments or a topic you want us to talk about!     This episode was recorded in 2022.    For any words said negligently or that may have caused offence, we ask the listener’s forgiveness and take full responsibility.
